Next up is Oxford in the EFL Trophy or Checkatrade on Tuesday night. IF we want to qualify we need to win in 90 minutes or on penalties to take it to the last game of the group stage against Fulham u21s.
How do we think KC will take this game? A chance to see some youngsters & squad players or will he play a strong team hoping still to qualify.

Looking forward to this! Normally (for I hope obvious reasons!) despite our recent always win at the Kassam form, consumed by a fear of losing - as Derby (personal - yes) day does. However, two teams who seem to shockingly be either goal shy, leaky at the back - or both, lacking a passion for the club (by some!) and dropping to the foot or near of the table following seemingly decent draws yesterday! No pressure whatever the result on Tuesday night!

Play as many of the youth team as possible.

I would think KC would like to keep his unbeaten run going and given that he's been giving out of favour players their opportunities there's not to much worry about over exerting players. The only Oxford fans looking forward to this one are those that want Robinson out and are hoping a loss will speed up the process. The other see it was what it is - a potential banana skin for an out of form club.

In that case, hopefully Oxford win 2-1, against a youthful Cobblers side, who don't pick up any injuries

This situation with Taylor and Barnett is a bit odd, both are said to be unavailable but no mention of any injuries - is the implication that their fitness levels are not deemed to be up to scratch?

Especially odd that Barnett has been playing well recently

I believe Leon has an illness not injury.

Interesting about Taylor, still not been said he's actually injured, just unavailable....
He needed dropping, so nice to see KC acting swiftly, if he has just been dropped.

Five changes from Saturday, but the same 18 selected. No room for youth....not sure whether that’s a good thing or a bad thing! At least we seem to be taking the game and competition seriously!

I reckon he's treating the game as an opportunity to see a few more first teamers in action.

Makes sense! I suppose we could always get the result we need and then try out some of the youth in the Fulham game.

Three of ours booked, one of theirs following handbags in the centre circle.
